mummy * wife * wannabe runner * aspiring slimmer * crafty queen * social media junkie * in love with life
To Darcie, my first-born Bear.
You are the tiny human that made me a mummy and I cannot thank you enough. As I sit here the night before you head off on a brand-new adventure tomorrow, it just feels so soon. Tomorrow you start pre-school 5 mornings a week for the upcoming school year. We’ve seen the school, met the teachers and know that you will love it there. However – now we only have a few short hours to go – it feels so sudden.
For this weeks Bear Portraits we headed back to Just So festival for our second year in a row. Wonderful in some ways and a struggle in others, overall its been a fabulous weekend.
It’s been such a long time since I did our Bear Portraits. A post which records a little moments of where my two Bears are right now. So, this is going to be a bit of an overall catch up of these two.
Between holidays, busy weeks and Henrys birthday, it’s been a good few weeks since we’ve last done a Bear Portraits update. The idea is to capture the moment as to where my kids are right now.
This weeks update comes thanks to a fabulous weekend spent in Edinburgh. This was out first city break since having the kids and was a little tester before we branched out into a European city. I have to say it was a success!! There were tears, laughter and we no doubt learnt a lot for next time!
Dear Henry
Oh, my darling boy.
I cannot believe that you are already 2-years-old. Perhaps it’s because you’re my youngest child or perhaps it’s because I know you are my last, but I don’t feel like I am ready. 2 seems like a big number for me, so much more so than when you turned 1. It seems like the official entrance into toddler-hood and although it’s been a while since there was anything ‘baby’ about you, this suddenly makes it all feel so much more official.
